Not far from the center of the historic town of Lüneburg lies the Lüne Benedictine monastery, founded in 1172. Surrounded by extensive gardens and away from the restlessness of everyday life, it is still an island of peace and contemplation today, but also a place of encounter, exchange and culture.
Numerous visitors find their way to Lüne Abbey, whose rich history repeatedly attracts film productions to this place. From April to October, guided tours take place through the building complex, which has been almost completely preserved to this day. Our Museum of Sacred Textile Art is also well worth a visit. In the weaving mill at the monastery, run by the Heinz Friedrich Meyer Foundation, visitors can follow the practice of this ancient craft on the loom during opening hours. The monastery café "Remise", which still presents itself to its guests in the original Renaissance style, provides refreshments.
